RE: Operations Navigator and IFS share problem

Try right clicking on the folder XRT.  Then scroll to "Sharing" to "New Share". 
 This might be easier.

Subject: Operations Navigator and IFS share problem


I'm trying to create a share using Ops Nav. I want to set up a share for a
directory called XRT under Root in the IFS. Within Ops Nav I open NetServer
and I can see 2 existing shares: Qdirsrv and Qibm. I right-click Shared
Objects in the left pane and click New/File. This brings up the NetServer
File Share window, and I key "XRT" as the share name, "XRT iSeries share"
as the description, change Access to Read/Write, and click the Browse
button. In the Browse window I select the XRT directory and click OK. This
brings the path name /xrt into NetServer File Share window, and I click OK.

The NetServer window now shows in the right pane a share called Xrt along
with the 2 pre-existing Q* shares. So far so good. I close NetServer, and
back in Ops Nav I click on File Shares and can see the 3 shares. If I now
double-click on the Xrt share there is a brief pause before a File Shares
window pops up with the dreaded exclamation point yellow triangle and the
message "The path, \Xrt, was not found." I get similar results if I
double-click on either of the 2 Q* shares.

Ops Nav is V4R5M0, the iSeries is at V5R3M0, my ID is class *PGMR and also
has *SAVSYS and *SECADM special authorities, but not *IOSYSCFG (does it
need it for this task?). Any ideas what might be going wrong?
